Hello,
I'm new hre and really appreciate the game server, its really a great
chance to play with differents players, iomprove and have some good
times.

Althought I play regulary RFTG on table, there's still place for tules
misinterpretations or confusion. In my precise case, I just ended a
game about which I don't understand the result. To be clear about it,
I'm not trying to contest it, but to get the explanations which should
help me to not fall under the same trick again.

Here's the game : http://genie.game-host.org/game.htm?gid=112754

- Why did my opponent keep the military bonnu? If I can count right,
we both haev +9 and I always played the game in a way if a goal is
tied, noone get it. Was I wrong?

- Why do I have a tied bonus tile but my opponent doesn't? Is is
because I'm challenging it but didnt get it yet?

- Why is the game a loss althought we both have 50 points? Is there
any bonus to the fastest player to finish the game, or is it because
he has a cheap and I don't?

Thanks by advance for any answer, and thanks again to all the people
I've been playing with since I discovered this site.

For five point bonus goals, the first person to achieve it keeps it
until someone else *exceeds* the metric. So for military bonus, if he
gets it at +6, you need to achieve +7 to take it away. But if you tie,
you get 3 points instead.

Yes.

Tiebreaker is the number of cards in your hand + number of unused goods
on your board. You have 0 + 1
and he has 4 + 4.
